We are back in Arizona with mostly blue skies and sunshine. The other day we made a trip out to nearby Carefree where my parents used to live.

There is an area there full of giant boulders. There is, in fact, a resort there called The Boulders. It’s such an unexpected thing to come upon in the desert.

Seen in the garden in the city center. The ends of the cacti are covered with plastic cups to protect the plants as it got below freezing for two nights.

Giant sundial.

An unusual cactus. I’m not sure if it is a native plant or not.

We went into an old time bar called The Horny Toad for a drink while there. I liked the wooden floor.
